a runner for the church

i have an appointment Saturday for limos and on the phone they asked if i wanted a runner for the church... do you ladies think its necessary or a tripping hazard?

I opted not to do one. I don't think it would be a tripping hazard but they are paper and after everyone walks on it, it looks bad (more at the end near alter than in the middle).

You might want to check with your church to make sure they allow it. I think some churches are nixing them these days.

My church already told me that they don't allow it.

At my brothers wedding I had to wind up carrying my niece because she kept tripping on it. So if you have a young flower girl or ring bearer you may want to skip it.

Re: a runner for the church

Does the runner go into the church? I was so confused when we spoke about this to our limo company hahha I thought it was just something outside for getting in and out of the limos.

I hadn't even thought about it until our limo suggested. She made a great point. If there is snow (getting married Jan) people are gona have wet feet and then I'll walk down the aisle and my dress will get wet/dirty. I have to call my church and see if they allow it though..

Also, they do have it where they roll it out right before your wedding starts, after everyone is seated and ready for the processional!!

I wouldn't think it's necessary. especially if you have to pay for it and are questioning it anyway

Our florist told us if we are getting married outside at CHCC to NOT get a runner. The brick causes uneven ground, and can be a bit dangerous since you can't see the cracks. I don't know if this makes any sense, sorry haha

To the OP, I think aisle runners are really nice and I'll definitely be using one.

My church won't allow us to use one because of tripping hazzards... they said it's happened before. That made me nervous, I don't know if I would want one just hearing that!

i think we've decided NOT to do the runner...thank you ladies for all your help.. i am worried it will be a tripping hazard...and if it rains on my wedding day then it will get dirty from everyones shoes.

If CHCC does not provide it, we will get it from our florist.
